Mitzi Let’s Think About It.

Let's Think About "Writing a Book" With Special Guest Suzy Vadori

What if the story you've been carrying inside you isn't just a story—but something waiting to be shared with the world?

In this inspiring episode of Mitzi, Let’s Think About It, Mitzi welcomes special guest Suzy Vadori for a fascinating conversation about writing a book, storytelling, creativity, finding your voice, overcoming self-doubt, and what it really takes to turn an idea into something readers can hold in their hands.

Writing a book can seem like a dream that belongs to someone else—until the idea begins taking root in your own mind.

Maybe you've always wanted to write.

Maybe there's a story you've been carrying for years.

Maybe you have knowledge or experiences you believe could help someone else.

Or perhaps you simply have an idea that won't leave you alone.

But between “I want to write a book” and actually writing one are questions, challenges, uncertainty, and plenty of opportunities to doubt yourself.

Mitzi and Suzy explore the creative and personal journey of becoming an author, from developing an idea and finding your voice to navigating the writing process and staying committed when the words don't come easily.

Together, they reflect on questions such as:

Where does a book idea really begin?

What does it take to turn an idea into a complete story?

How do writers overcome self-doubt?

Why is finding your authentic voice so important?

What can aspiring authors learn from the writing process?

How do you keep going when inspiration fades?

What makes a story connect with readers?

As always, Mitzi, Let’s Think About It is about more than simply discussing a subject. It's about creating space to pause, reflect, and connect with both your mind and your heart.

Because sometimes the hardest part of writing a book isn't putting words on a page.

It's believing your words are worth putting there.

What story, idea, or message are you carrying that might be waiting for you to finally write it down?

Let's Think About "Flipping" With Special Guest Ginger Faith

What if “flipping” isn't just about changing what something looks like on the outside, but about seeing possibilities where everyone else sees problems?

In this engaging episode of Mitzi, Let’s Think About It, Mitzi welcomes special guest Ginger Faith for a fascinating conversation about “Flipping,” perspective, transformation, creativity, opportunity, and the ability to look at something ordinary—or even challenging—and imagine what it could become.

The word flipping can mean different things depending on the context, but at its heart is an idea that can apply far beyond a single industry or activity:

Take something as it is. Look at it differently. And imagine what it could become.

Mitzi and Ginger explore the mindset behind flipping and what it can teach us about recognizing opportunities, embracing change, taking calculated risks, solving problems, and transforming circumstances into possibilities.

Together, they invite listeners to reflect on questions such as:

What does it really mean to “flip” something?

How does perspective influence the opportunities we see?

Why do some people see potential where others see limitations?

What can flipping teach us about adaptability and creativity?

How do we know when it's time to take a chance on an opportunity?

Can changing the way we look at something change the outcome?

As always, Mitzi, Let’s Think About It isn't about simply giving you an answer. It's about creating a conversation that makes you pause, look at something familiar from a new angle, and connect with both your mind and your heart.

Because sometimes the biggest transformation doesn't begin by changing what is in front of us.

It begins by changing the way we see it.

What could you “flip” in your own life if you were willing to look at it differently?

Let's Think About "Ruby’s Pearls: Dreams Made Real" With Special Guest Diann Floyd Boehm

What if the dreams we carry in our hearts aren't meant to remain dreams—but are invitations to believe, persevere, and make them real?

In this inspiring episode of Mitzi, Let’s Think About It, Mitzi welcomes special guest Diann Floyd Boehm for a heartfelt conversation about dreams, perseverance, imagination, courage, hope, creativity, and the journey of turning possibilities into reality.

Through the lens of “Ruby’s Pearls: Dreams Made Real,” Mitzi and Diann explore the deeper meaning behind pursuing the dreams that matter to us. Dreams can begin as tiny ideas, quiet hopes, or seemingly impossible wishes—but what happens when we choose to nurture them instead of letting fear, doubt, or circumstances convince us to let them go?

This conversation invites listeners to think about the dreams they've carried throughout their own lives and the experiences that have shaped them along the way.

Together, Mitzi and Diann reflect on questions such as:

What makes a dream worth pursuing?

Why do we sometimes stop believing in our own dreams?

How can imagination open the door to new possibilities?

What role do perseverance and courage play in turning dreams into reality?

How can life's challenges change the dreams we once had?

Is achieving a dream always about reaching a destination—or can the journey transform us along the way?

As always, Mitzi, Let’s Think About It is about more than simply discussing a topic. It's about creating a space where listeners can pause, reflect, and connect with their own experiences, minds, and hearts.

Because sometimes the dream we almost gave up on is the very thing reminding us that there's still something worth reaching for.

What dream have you been carrying—and what would happen if you dared to believe in it again?

Let's Think About "Team Building" With Special Guest Glenn Poulos

What if the strength of a team isn't determined by how talented its individual members are, but by how well they learn to trust, communicate, and grow together?

In this engaging episode of Mitzi, Let’s Think About It, Mitzi welcomes special guest Glenn Poulos for a thought-provoking conversation about team building, leadership, communication, trust, collaboration, workplace culture, and what it really takes to create a team that works together—not just alongside one another.

Every organization wants a great team.

But building one is about more than putting talented people in the same room.

Teams are made up of different personalities, experiences, communication styles, strengths, weaknesses, expectations, and perspectives. When those differences aren't understood, they can create conflict and disconnection. But when they're recognized and valued, they can become some of a team's greatest strengths.

Mitzi and Glenn explore the human side of team building and what leaders and team members can do to create stronger relationships, better communication, and a healthier environment where people can thrive.

Together, they reflect on questions such as:

What actually makes a team successful?

Why is trust so important in teamwork?

How can communication strengthen—or weaken—a team?

What role does leadership play in creating team culture?

How do we navigate different personalities and perspectives?

Can conflict actually make a team stronger?

What happens when people feel unheard or undervalued?

As always, Mitzi, Let’s Think About It goes beyond surface-level answers and creates space to consider the deeper human questions behind the topic.

Because ultimately, team building isn't just about getting people to work together—it's about learning how people connect, communicate, trust, and bring out the best in one another.

What kind of team are you helping create?

Let's Think About "Cultivating Kindness" With Special Guest Kim Lengling

What if one small act of kindness could change someone's entire day—and what if cultivating kindness could change us, too?

In this uplifting and thought-provoking episode of Mitzi, Let’s Think About It, Mitzi welcomes special guest Kim Lengling for a meaningful conversation about cultivating kindness, compassion, empathy, connection, and the powerful impact our everyday choices can have on the people around us.

Kindness can seem simple. A smile. A thoughtful word. A moment of patience. Choosing to listen instead of judge.

But what happens when kindness becomes more than something we occasionally do—and becomes something we intentionally cultivate within ourselves?

Mitzi and Kim explore what it means to live with greater compassion in a world that can sometimes feel disconnected, rushed, and divided. They invite listeners to think about how our words, actions, attitudes, and willingness to see others can create moments of connection that matter more than we realize.

This conversation encourages us to reflect on questions like:

What does it really mean to cultivate kindness?

Why can small acts of kindness have such a lasting impact?

How can we become more intentional about showing compassion?

What keeps us from being kind when we're stressed, frustrated, or hurting ourselves?

Can kindness change the way we experience our relationships and communities?

How can we practice kindness toward ourselves as well as others?

As always, Mitzi, Let’s Think About It is about creating conversations that make you pause, reflect, and connect with both your mind and your heart.

Because kindness isn't always about doing something extraordinary.

Sometimes it's about choosing, in an ordinary moment, to make someone else's world feel a little lighter.

What if kindness isn't just something we give—but something we become?

Let's Think About "Never Hiring Your Friends" With Special Guest Marcylle Combs

What happens when the person you trust most as a friend becomes the person you have to manage as an employee?

On this episode of Mitzi, Let’s Think About It, I’m joined by special guest Marcylle Combs for a fascinating and thought-provoking conversation about “Never Hiring Your Friends.”

We've all heard the advice: don't mix friendship and business. But why? Is hiring a friend really a recipe for disaster, or are there deeper issues involving boundaries, expectations, accountability, communication, trust, and leadership that we need to consider?

Together, Marcylle and I explore the complicated dynamics that can arise when personal relationships and professional relationships overlap. We talk about what can happen when expectations aren't clearly defined, how difficult conversations can affect friendships, and why making a business decision can become much harder when emotions and personal history are involved.

What happens when you have to hold your friend accountable? What if their performance isn't meeting expectations? Can you separate the person you care about from the role they're responsible for? And perhaps most importantly, what happens to the friendship when business doesn't go as planned?

This conversation isn't simply about whether you should or shouldn't hire your friends. It's an invitation to think more deeply about the boundaries we create, the decisions we make, and the relationships we risk when business and friendship collide.

Whether you're an entrepreneur, business owner, leader, manager, or someone who has ever considered working with a friend, this episode offers plenty of perspectives to consider before making that decision.

At Mitzi, Let’s Think About It, we believe that if you can think about it, then we can talk about it. My hope is that every conversation connects with your mind and your heart, challenges your perspective, and gives you something meaningful to reflect on.

Let's Think About "The Thriving, Exhilarating Experience of Life" With Special Guest Zac Russell

What if truly living isn't about simply getting through life—but about becoming fully alive to the experience of it?

On this episode of Mitzi, Let’s Think About It, I’m joined by special guest Zac Russell for an inspiring, heartfelt, and thought-provoking conversation about “The Thriving, Exhilarating Experience of Life.”

What does it actually mean to thrive?

Is it success? Happiness? Adventure? Purpose? Connection? Or is it something deeper—an ability to embrace the highs, navigate the lows, remain curious, and fully participate in the life we're given?

Together, Zac and I explore what it means to experience life with greater energy, intention, curiosity, courage, gratitude, and authenticity. We reflect on the difference between simply existing and truly living, and what can happen when we stop waiting for the “perfect” circumstances before allowing ourselves to experience joy and possibility.

Life isn't always easy. There are unexpected challenges, disappointments, losses, changes, and moments that test us. Yet within those experiences can also be opportunities for growth, connection, discovery, and transformation.

This conversation invites you to pause and consider your own life:

Are you simply going through the motions—or are you truly experiencing your life?

Whether you're searching for greater purpose, feeling stuck in a routine, navigating a transition, or simply wanting to reconnect with the excitement of being alive, this episode offers encouragement and plenty of meaningful ideas to reflect upon.

At Mitzi, Let’s Think About It, we believe that if you can think about it, then we can talk about it. My hope is that every conversation reaches both your mind and your heart, inspires reflection, and encourages you to see your life—and your possibilities—in a new way.

Let's Think About "Well Water vs City Water" With Special Guest Cydian Kauffman

What if the water you drink every day has a story you’ve never stopped to think about?

On this episode of Mitzi, Let’s Think About It, I’m joined by special guest Cydian Kauffman for an informative and thought-provoking conversation about Well Water vs. City Water.

Water is something most of us use without a second thought. We turn on the faucet, fill a glass, take a shower, cook a meal—and rarely stop to consider where that water comes from or what happens before it reaches us.

But is well water better than city water? What are the differences between the two? What should homeowners know about water quality, testing, treatment, maintenance, and the responsibilities that come with having a private well?

Together, Cydian and I explore the differences between private well water and municipal city water, including water sources, treatment, testing, water quality, maintenance, and some of the important considerations homeowners should understand.

This conversation isn't about simply declaring one option “better.” Instead, it encourages us to become more informed about something that plays an essential role in our everyday lives.

Whether you live in the country with a private well, rely on municipal water, are considering purchasing a home, or simply want to understand your drinking water better, this episode gives you plenty to think about.

Sometimes the things we take for granted deserve a second look.

And perhaps the next time you turn on your faucet, you'll think a little differently about what's coming out.

At Mitzi, Let’s Think About It, we believe that if you can think about it, then we can talk about it. My hope is that every conversation connects with your mind and your heart, sparks curiosity, and encourages you to look more deeply at the things that impact your everyday life.

Let's Think About "Responsible Travel" With Special Guest Patrika Alis Cheston

What if the way we travel could change not only the places we visit, but also the way we see the world?

On this episode of Mitzi, Let’s Think About It, I’m joined by special guest Patrika Alis Cheston for a meaningful and thought-provoking conversation about Responsible Travel.

Travel can open our eyes to new cultures, people, traditions, landscapes, and perspectives—but with the privilege of exploring the world comes responsibility. How do we travel in ways that respect the people who live in the places we visit? How can our choices impact local communities, cultures, and the environment?

Together, Patrika and I explore the idea of responsible and conscious travel and what it means to become more intentional about the footprints we leave behind.

We reflect on sustainable tourism, cultural awareness, environmental responsibility, supporting local communities, respecting traditions, and traveling with greater mindfulness. This conversation encourages us to look beyond simply asking, “Where do I want to go?” and begin asking, “How can I travel in a way that makes a positive difference?”

Because travel isn't just about collecting destinations or taking pictures. It's about experiencing the world—and recognizing that the world we experience is also someone else's home.

Whether you're an experienced traveler, planning your next adventure, or simply curious about how tourism affects communities and our planet, this episode invites you to think differently about what it means to travel responsibly.

At Mitzi, Let’s Think About It, we believe that if you can think about it, then we can talk about it. My hope is that every conversation connects with your mind and your heart, encourages reflection, and inspires you to see familiar ideas from a new perspective.

Let's Think About "Fitness for Parents" With Special Guest Josh Wood

What if taking care of yourself isn't selfish—but one of the greatest gifts you can give your family?

On this episode of Mitzi, Let’s Think About It, I’m joined by special guest Josh Wood for an honest, encouraging, and thought-provoking conversation about fitness for parents.

Parenthood can feel like a never-ending list of responsibilities. Between work, school, activities, meals, appointments, family obligations, and simply trying to make it through the day, finding time for your own health can easily fall to the bottom of the list.

But what happens when we stop thinking about fitness as something we have to “find time for” and start looking at it as an investment in ourselves—and in the people who depend on us?

Josh and I explore the realities parents face when trying to stay active, healthy, energized, and consistent. We talk about making fitness more realistic, overcoming the “I don't have enough time” mindset, creating sustainable healthy habits, and finding ways to prioritize your well-being without feeling guilty.

This conversation isn't about perfection, unrealistic expectations, or spending hours in the gym. It's about movement, consistency, energy, healthy living, self-care, and finding an approach to fitness that actually fits into real family life.

Whether you're a new parent, a busy mom or dad, or someone who's been putting your own health on hold for years, this episode offers an opportunity to pause and ask yourself:

What could change in my life—and my family's life—if I started taking better care of me, too?

At Mitzi, Let’s Think About It, we believe that if you can think about it, then we can talk about it. These conversations are designed to connect with your mind and your heart, inspire reflection, and perhaps encourage one small change that can make a meaningful difference.
